MEGASYNC™ GOLD2 / GOLD2 DD

Overview

MEGASYNC™ Gold2 / Gold2 DD

MEGASYNC™ Gold2 / Gold2 DD has been developed to provide a more powerful version of RPP and Silver3 belts. It is suitable for a very wide range of applications in power transmission. This type of belt combines the advantages of gears and roller chain drives, minimizing the drawbacks of both.

Gold2 belts feature the RPC profile, designed also to be interchangeable with existing deep groove profiles and to run on pulleys according to ISO 13050. MEGASYNC™ Gold2 belts are also antistatic according to ISO 9563.

Features

MEGASYNC™ Gold2 can be used to improve and easily upgrade already existing drives working with both MEGASYNC™ RPP and MEGASYNC™ Silver.

The design of Gold2 timing belts offers the possibility to keep using the same RPP pulleys.

MEGASYNC™ Gold2 14M belts have two nylon plies on the teeth to:
• Improve belt resistance to wearing
• Reduce friction and noise levels.

Because of these features, replacing an MEGASYNC™ RPP or Silver3 with an MEGASYNC™ Gold2 can:
• Reduce belt width thanks to the higher power rate; this allows also to reduce the required pulley width. They both lead to a significant transmission weight reduction;
• Reduce the pulley diameters thanks to the higher power rate; this leads to a lower belt linear speed and to the consequent noise reduction.

Roller Conveyors Transmission

SITUATION/APPLICATION
In ceramics manufacturing, tiles need to be moved, sorted, or processed on smooth and efficient transportation system. Overall, belts are integral in ensuring the synchronized movement of rollers, thereby providing an efficient and controlled method for transporting tiles across different stages of processing lines.

THE PROBLEM
Standard belting solutions can encounter significant issues:
– Rapid wear of the toothed side due to constant start-stop operations in the roller conveyors.
– Reduced performance, caused by high ambient temperatures and abrasive ceramic dust.
In addition, the increasing weight of ceramic tiles, from as little as 0.01 kg to 200 kg, demanded greater force for movement, stressing the belts and further decreasing their lifespan. This results in frequent downtime and high maintenance costs.
